We made this for Easter dinner. We will also take Daves’s advice of putting it on a buffet so we can enjoy the party!
I have made this recipe for years. Awesome every time!
What is with the star ratings without trying the recipe? How can anyone review a recipe without trying it???
Made this recipe today for Easter dinner. This was my first time cooking a ham. The recipe was easy to follow and beautiful, caramelized ham was absolutely delish! The ham was eaten down to the bone! I’m definitely making this recipe again.
It came out perfectly!!! So delicious.
We loved this! Easy, moist, perfect.
10/10 would make again. I’d make extra glaze for plating, to be sure.
Delicious! Will make this again!
This is a great recipe! I didn’t realize I needed close to 2 hours to cook, so I bumped up the temp to 325 for an hour, then 350 during the glazing part. Turned out fantastic…yummy caramelized bits on top and still moist throughout. Thanks Dave!
